Hau mitakuyepi na mita cola,The new Santana album "Shape Shifter"is dedecate to all natve people from Australia to the Turtle island.Bisides the pretty music on the back side of the cover is printed a very strong prayer.I persume to give it with big respect to all members of the forum. Oh Great Spirit,whose voice I hear in the wind,And whose breath gives life to all the world.hear meI am small and weak,I need your strengh and wisdom.Let me walk in beauty and make my eyesever behold the red and purple sunset.Make my hands respect the things you have madeand my ears sharp to hear your voice.Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have tougth my people.Let me learn the lessons you have hiddenin every leaf and rock.I seek a strengh,not to be greater that my brodhers,but to fitht my greatest enimy-myself.Make me always ready to come to you withclean hands and straigth eyes.So when life fades ,as the fading sunsedmy spirit may come yo you withaut shame.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful prayer, Ivan. I needed this; its difficult to find words in this chaotic world fitting to address our Creator. I am printing this out for, I hope, daily use to soothe my soul. And thank you to Carlos Santana for including such an elequant prayer on his cd; for people of all backgrounds may be gifted.
